Hi, I’m trying to access a REST API that specifically requests the use of cert and key as I’d do it with curl: ` ` curl --cert-type pem --cert mycert.pem --key mykey.pem -k [https://thiswebsite.com/api/v2/endpoint](https://thiswebsite.com/api/v2/endpoint) ` ` and it seems that I can’t do it with the uri module, which can be (and is for me) a big showstopper in the uri general use. Is this something we can expect to see in a near future ? Or maybe it’s already there and I just didn’t see it (where then, there’s a lack in the documentaiton). Thanks, Christian Tardif ---

This is not currently a feature, but you can open an Issue and someone might implement it. ---

Christian, A second option is that you could implement the feature yourself, and create a pull request, and it will be hopefully be reviewed favourably.
